The author running back to read the latest on the Deighton Dossier twitter feed |
In the interim, if you are on Twitter do follow this Twitter Moment, which captures the regular tweets that have been going up containing snippets from some of his best-known books and reader responses to them, in the lead-up to 18 February
I was expecting a good story, but the wit and humor in London Match is a wonderful surprise. Lots of really perceptive observations of how actual people act under all kinds of stressful situations too. What a thoroughly enjoyable experience reading this book. You may not enjoy writing books, Mr Deighton (as you say in a televised interview some years back( but we sure do enjoy reading them! Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI was there when the Wall was taken down in Berlin in 1989 (what a party it was) and went through Checkpoint Charlie. I've learned so much about Germany from this book.
